Bounding Observability for Uncertain Nonlinear Dynamics Systems (BOUNDS)

pybounds

Python implementation of BOUNDS: Bounding Observability for Uncertain Nonlinear Dynamic Systems.

Introduction

This repository provides a minimal working example demonstrating how to empirically calculate the observability level of individual states for a nonlinear (partially observable) system, and accounts for sensor noise.

Installing

The package can be installed by cloning the repo and running python setup.py install from inside the home pybounds directory.

Alternatively using pip

pip install pybounds

Notebook examples

For a simple system

• Monocular camera with optic fow measurements: mono_camera_example.ipynb

For a more complex system

• Fly-wind: fly_wind_example.ipynb
